War on the Home Front: Domestic Life During Wartime

2015 commemorates both the 150th anniversary of the end of the Civil War and the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II. Join us as we salute those who “kept the home fires burning” for the months and years that their loved ones were away serving our country. See compelling U.S. propaganda posters, uniforms, and other artifacts that were created for, or inspired by, the patriotism that these conflicts kindled.
